Nothing can be done really. Apps with saner framerates are better.

The X server only loads r128 if necessary. You have to make sure that agpgart
gets loaded before, man update-modules(8) and modules.conf(5).
PS: agpgart in benh's kernel is still experimental, be prepared for it to kill
your machine. ;)
